Are you interested in applying a watermark to an image, or do you know how to do that and what to learn how to add your own watermarks to SC?

Here are the new doors, with the new vertical divider between them.

They are attached with concealed (euro) hinges.

Btw I actually had to recut a replacement for one of the doors.. I was trimming it down to fit in the new smaller space and made a beginner mistake trying to take it off the tablesaw before the blade completely finished spinning and it got caught in the blade and put a big gash in it.

I haven't made too many mistakes so far, but the doors have been a predictable struggle.
One problem was of my own making in the design stage.  I should have known not to try to put a double door where two doors close and meet in the middle.  Inset doors are hard enough, but having two doors meet with no vertical divider between them makes alignment even more difficult.  The eyes notice a misalignment here more than anywhere i think.  Plus it looks a little odd.  So after failing to get my doors to align sufficiently well, and cutting them too narrow, I decided to back up and put a vertical rail divider between them.  Makes accessing the contents slightly less convenient but I think it will look better...

Now I have to pick out some pulls for the drawers.. I have been using these T-bar pulls in other builds and I like them, so I'll probably go with them for the drawers and doors:

What I meant is that many of us fight a voice in the back of our head that cautions us against showing vulnerability -- a voice that tells us not to show our weaknesses, and not to share our creations for fear they will be ridiculed or that they don't live up to expectations.  I think people like Simone are reminders that a far healthier way to live is not to let these voices stop you from putting yourself and your work out there, with a healthy dose of not taking yourself too seriously, and enjoy making a real connection with others.  People will appreciate your willingness to be vulnerable, and your projects have value even when they aren't perfect.

The big take home message I get from Simone Giertz (her work and her recent shared struggle) is: Put yourself out there.

Here it is upright so you can see exactly where it will be and how much space it will occupy.

Here it is so far after 5 days of solid work:

I never said I was fast :(

Dimensions are 8ft long by about 30 inches tall.


Note that those aren't the real feet, they are temporary feet so I can stand it up and work with it before i put final real feet on at the end.

You should be able to drag a blank part of it back to the top.
If you can't do that, you can exit and edit the ScreenshotCaptor.ini file and delete a line that should restore it -- i'll tell you how to do that if you can't get the drag to work.

Gone Baby Gone -- seen it 5 or 6 times, one of my favorites.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0452623/

I cannot get enough of watching the boston neighborhood characters in this one.



Ironically, the movie was DIRECTED by Ben Afflect, and stars his brother Casey Affleck.  As an actor I am not a fan of Ben Affleck, but this is a sublimely directed movie -- Ben should stop acting and just stick to directing his brother.

Multi Photo Quotes / Re: Problem with showing multiple images on 1 monitor
« Last post by mouser on July 15, 2018, 12:20 PM »
Glad it's working for you.
I wonder if I added that option more recently and set it enabled by default..
Either way I should probably disable it when only a single monitor is found, as it is hard to see why anyone would want that option when they only have one monitor.  It can be fun when you have multiple monitors as it will always show one monitor full screen image.

Try unchecking the "at least one image should be full screen" option.
That can be a nice option if you have multiple monitors but not if you have only one.

ProcessTamer / Re: Setting process priority not working with Windows 10?
« Last post by mouser on July 14, 2018, 10:51 PM »
That's why I am so desparately looking for a tool which sets acemd.exe priority to "normal" for the whole time it's running.
I will add an option to PT to make it constantly force priority even if the app changes it, just hang in for a couple of days until I post an update :)

ProcessTamer / Re: Setting process priority not working with Windows 10?
« Last post by mouser on July 14, 2018, 02:51 PM »
I think I am suggesting the acemd DOES change it's priority to below normal.  Apps don't start at that priority as far as i know, so it HAS to be that something is setting it low, and I dont think it's PT, so I'm guessing it's the app itself or the process that launched it.

This is an offline thesaurus?
Yes.  It was written by Anderson (Wordzilla) who used to hang out here a lot but not recently, so it's not an actively developed program, but it's still a pretty wonderous tool.
